Guys,
if I got it correctly folder_sync copies all files to some gallery internal folder, right? So all photos are duplicated
Could it instead create symlink to external file?

Technically speaking Folder Sync does NOT create any other files; it's Gallery that does all the processing/resizing, thus it creates other files (I wouldn't call them duplicates). Once Folder Sync processed all files, you can certainly delete original files that you have uploaded (provided that you didn't enable "Process deleted items").

@zahaim - there are two issue I see there. First, I can't get a lock on a temp file to prevent multiple simultaneous executions. I will add the proper error handling to see what's going on there. Second, you have an issue with timezone settings.

Hi siburny,
Thanks for your quick reply. As far as the first issue is concerned (Warning: flock() expects parameter 1 to be resource, boolean given) I resolved it by changing permissions on my server.
Now, no matter if I run the cron as a httpdusr or admin, I've got the message regarding timezone and Notice: Undefined offset: 1 in /share/HDA_DATA/Web/gallery3/system/libraries/I18n.php on line 60.
I am trying to figure out where to put 'Europe/Berlin' to resolve timezone error, I have already done it in gallery3's settings and restarted apache but nothing changed.

The timezone setting needs to go in your php.ini:
date.timezone = "Europe/Berlin"

hello jnash,
Thanks. Look at this - all the files having date.timezone :
[/share/HDA_DATA/Web/gallery3] # find . -name "*php*" | xargs grep -l "date.timezone"
./php.ini
./system/config/locale.php
./index.php
./modules/gallery/helpers/gallery_event.php
and the lines :
[/share/HDA_DATA/Web/gallery3] # find . -name "*php*" | xargs cat | grep "date.timezone"
date.timezone = "Europe/Berlin"
$config['timezone'] = ini_get('date.timezone');<?php defined('SYSPATH') OR die('No direct access allowed.');
if (!ini_get("date.timezone")) {
ini_set("date.timezone", "Europe/Berlin");
if (!get_cfg_var("date.timezone")) {
Kohana_Log::add("error", "date.timezone setting not detected in " .
It seems to be done in all php config files though.

Can you also check through a web? I've seen systems where two different config files are used for CGI and CLI. Just put a small info.php file, put "<?php phpinfo();" in it, and hit it through web.

Hi siburny,
It's OK though the web as well. I've found a fix http://galleryproject.org/node/106233 but I did not work as well.
I am still investigating...

One more thing I just noticed in your error output:
Kohana_PHP_Exception [ 2 ]: date_default_timezone_get(): It is not safe to rely on the system's timezone settings. You are *required* to use the date.timezone setting or the date_default_timezone_set() function. In case you used any of those methods and you are still getting this warning, you most likely misspelled the timezone identifier. We selected 'Europe/Berlin' for 'CEST/2.0/DST' instead
/share/HDA_DATA/Web/gallery3/modules/gallery/config/locale.php [ 36 ]
PHP thinks you are in "CEST/2.0/DST". So somewhere it's still set to wrong timezone.

Can you paste the output for the following commands:
php -i | grep ini
and
php -i | grep timezone
Like I said, it's possible that PHP loads different INI-file for command-line interface.

OK, so I got it work.
First, I followed your instruction and found that the timezone was not set in another php.ini file that php was actually using. So I inserted it.
Then, I found the following line in the logfile :
2013-08-11 16:00:23 +02:00 --- error: Kohana_PHP_Exception [ 2 ]: date_default_timezone_set() expects parameter 1 to be string, array given
/share/HDA_DATA/Web/gallery3/system/core/Kohana.php [ 165 ]
I went to Kohana.php and found:
date_default_timezone_set(Kohana::config("Europe/Berlin"));
so I replaced it with:
date_default_timezone_set("Europe/Berlin");
The value must have been put there while I tried to replace the procedure of get to set timezone I guess and I did not make it properly.
Anyways, thank you a lot for the support and good luck with the very best module for gallery3. Cheers!

Hmm, there is no option like that right now. The easiest would to be add a couple of print statements to output status info.

For some reason Gallery thinks it's not installed, and directs you to the "installer" link

Am I correct that the cron job must run as the same user as Apache2? In my case www-data.
and that MySQL must also be configured to have permissions for this user?

Yes, cron job must run as Apache user to avoid the problem with file permissions down the road. As for MySQL, you don't have to do anything beyond setting up Gallery script itself. Since this is a plugin, it will use the same information as Gallery is using.

That's what I have. I'm having trouble because folder_sync is creating new folders at the 4th level of album hierarchy as root:root 755 and hence PHP as www-data is unable to write to it.

If you ran the cron job as root at least once or just executed it in console as root, then it already created folders with "root:root" permissions. You need to fix that by changing the owner back to www-data.

I can see why that would cause this problem but the cron job runs as www-data at least that's what ps -ef is showing me so I'm a bit puzzled. The folder did not exist until the cron job created it.
I set up/ran the cron job in Webmin so don't use a console.
Just to experiment I created a new folder at the top of the source tree and had cron run. folder_sync correctly created a new folder as www-data:www-data (correct) 755 which I guess is OK too. So it seems that the behavior is different depending on the hierarchical level of the folder to be added.

If parent folder was "root:root" with 755 permissions, then cronjob started as www-data would not have write access to that folder in the first place, so it wouldn't be able to create more folders with "root:root" owner.
At this point, just change the owner of the created folders to www-data, and you'll be fine.

Let me first explain why you get that error, then we can troubleshoot. From the stacktrace you posted above, it looks like the problem is in "error" view. Gallery throws an exception, then tries to show to you using "error" view, but there is another error in the that view. So bottom line, we don't see the original error. But why "error" view errors out, I don't know - it's not supposed to show "html" errors in command-line mode.
To troubleshoot, please navigate to /modules/gallery/view/Kohana/error.php, and then add the following right before line #11:
echo php_sapi_name();exit;
Then execute cronjob, and tell us what it outputs. On my system, I see "cli" printed in the output.

Thanks for your prompt reply (time zones will play with us, I am in Australia).
Added the code at line 10, executed the job and received the output below (by the way my path is /modules/gallery/views/Kohana/error.php but I assumed the correct file).

Hi!
I'm attempting to import a folder structure to a large existing Gallery. When there are albums with the same name, the Folder Sync module seems to always make a new folder with a duplicate name. Is there some way or trick I can use to get the folder contents merged?

At this point it's pretty hard to trick - you have to deal on folder-by-folder basis. But I can add a block that can check if folder exists before creating it.

Let me first explain why you get that error, then we can troubleshoot. From the stacktrace you posted above, it looks like the problem is in "error" view. Gallery throws an exception, then tries to show to you using "error" view, but there is another error in the that view. So bottom line, we don't see the original error. But why "error" view errors out, I don't know - it's not supposed to show "html" errors in command-line mode.
To troubleshoot, please navigate to /modules/gallery/view/Kohana/error.php, and then add the following right before line #11:
Then execute cronjob, and tell us what it outputs. On my system, I see "cli" printed in the output.

Thanks for your prompt reply (time zones will play with us, I am in Australia).
Added the code at line 10, executed the job and received the output below (by the way my path is /modules/gallery/views/Kohana/error.php but I assumed the correct file).

I assume this means that the PHP SAPI is cgi-fcgi?

Hi!
I'm attempting to import a folder structure to a large existing Gallery. When there are albums with the same name, the Folder Sync module seems to always make a new folder with a duplicate name. Is there some way or trick I can use to get the folder contents merged?

At this point it's pretty hard to trick - you have to deal on folder-by-folder basis. But I can add a block that can check if folder exists before creating it.

Yes please, that would be great!
